I witnessed a dreadful hit and run of a little cat in my neighbourhood this week. I did what I could (as a pedestrian) though the cat died. I would like to start a campaign to make it a legal requirement that when a cat is hit by a car the police have to be notified - they have to be called if you hit a dog, sheep, deer, goat etc, but NOT A CAT. This is so wrong.
Even if we can't prevent cats being hit by cars making it a legal requirement to notify the police would mean that worried owners with missing cats would have yet another course of action to find their pet.
I have emailed the Cats' Protection League to see if any campaign currently exists. If not I would like to start one. I would welcome views and suggestions on this - particularly from anyone aux fait with online campaigns.
